Wife due home do I'll,do rest of lemon chicken in an hour or so.

I 'liked' your post but not the creme eggs. I'll be happy with all your other purchases (except the baklava). I bought a pork tenderloin too. Not sure yet what I'm going to do with it.

NZ mussels are a huge export business here. I'm glad you get to try them.

When we used to go fishing in the sounds many years ago, we would tie up at a mussel barge and catch snapper and blue cod. The barges are everywhere.

That sounds like the oyster barges we have here in certain sounds and inlets.

Since I know that I will not be able to find black currant preserves or cocoa butter in the local stores (I have already been looking for them), I have ordered them online, along with 2 24 Oz. bags of semolina flour.
 
Mail order....


The last tin that I bought from Amul needed a tin opener and had a plastic resealable lid to use after opening. This one is designed like a paint tin, i.e. A screwdriver is required to open it and a hammer to re-seal it.

I bought a pork tenderloin too. Not sure yet what I'm going to do with it.

Just don't overcook it!

I went out to get gas in the car, and go to Kroger before the weather gets really ugly -- it was a balmy 21F (-6C). I bought the things I was missing for bean and ham soup -- like the beans. They were completely out of celery, except for the expensive, pre-sliced stuff. I hope it is good, considering what I paid for it.

The rest was just stuff like bread, deli meats/cheese, and snack items.
